Labor activists to protest outside offices of the Labor Secretary in downtown Buenos Aires, Argentina, Feb. 15.

Warning

Labor activists, possibly including members of the organization Polo Obrero, plan to hold a rally outside the offices of the Labor Secretary in downtown Buenos Aires Feb. 15. The purpose of the gathering is to protest the administration's economic policies and demand an increase in the country's minimum salary. Demonstrators will gather along Avenida Leandro Alem starting at 11:00. It remains unclear how many participants the event may draw.

Heightened security and transport disruptions are likely near the demonstration site until the gathering ends. Clashes are possible.

Avoid the announced protest as a precaution. Allow extra time for ground travel and consider alternative driving routes if operating near the Office of the Secretary of Labor in central Buenos Aires Feb. 15.
